Yesterday and today something odd happened to my pc. On Thursday I left my PC on overnight to download Dark Souls 3. When I woke up my PC appeared off but the power button was red. I hit the power button and I believe the only thing getting power was the PSU. No lights were turning on or fans. I reseat the ram and it turned on and resumed my session like it went into hibernation mode before a problem occurred because I cut all the power to the machine and removed all the ram so it definitely wasnt in sleep mode.

Today I was playing League of Legends with my friends and all of the sudden it powered down and did the same thing.. When I resat the RAM again it still didn't boot. I unplugged a bunch of things and plugged them back in (probably shouldve done one at a time) and then it worked..



I wanna say this is a motherboard problem but im not 100% sure on it yet.
